Chapter 240 Childhood Friend
Korosensei: "Is it only me or do we really have nothing to do with this group chat?"
"...."
Kuroneko: "Yeah, there is nothing to do since there isn't any quest."
Korosensei: "Still, this world is good, the food is nice but...."
Gintoki: "But?"
Koresensei: "There is only a male with a bulky muscle around me! I have enough of this! I want to read a p.o.r.n magazine!"
Teppei: "I have bought you one before, right?"
Korosensei: "My preference is normal humans! I don't want to read a p.o.r.n magazine with an octopus as the heroine!"
"..."
They shuddered when they thought such a p.o.r.n magazine had existed in that world.
Teppei: "But you're an octopus!"
Korosensei: "T - That's true, but..."
Tsunade: "Can you talk to your p.o.r.n magazine directly? Both of you are in the same world, right? It disgusts me to see both grown-up men discuss a p.o.r.n magazine."
Korensensei: "Tsunade-sama! Please punish me!"
[Tsunade has turned off the chat]
"......."
'Korosensensei.....'
Everyone was speechless when they saw the chat on their phone.
Haru looked at his phone and shook his head.
"Is that Korosensei?" Ritsu asked.
"Yeah," Haru nodded and thought, 'It has been half a month.' He still remembered when he asked about polygamy and he didn't have any serious motive when he asked that question since that came out of his mouth suddenly. He was lucky that he didn't receive a shuriken throw from Megumi and could go back unscathed.
"They suck," Iwasawa said to both Yuri and Shiina.
Shiina and Yuri had been practicing both guitar and drum but they couldn't do it successfully.
"Well, they're still learning," Haru said and thought for a bit, "Do you have anyone that you can invite to become your band member?"
Iwasawa shook her head, "I don't have a friend."
"....." Haru felt a bit sad for her, "Aren't we your friends?"
"Yeah, we're your friend, that is why teaches me how to use this," Yuri said while holding drum sticks.
Shiina was holding a guitar without doing anything since she was eating mochi in her hands.
Iwasawa blushed and nodded, "Alright."
"Do you have anyone who will play the keyboard?" Megumi asked.
"Keyboard, huh?" Haru needed to make music for the trailer of his game.
Kosaka was making the animation trailer from the ill.u.s.tration that she had created.
Haru thought for a bit about who could help him to play the keyboard. He suddenly remembered someone and said, "Megumi, can you play a keyboard?"
"Me? I can't do it, I might as well learn guitar since Shiina is..." Megumi said while looking at her.
"....." Haru looked at Shiina and felt a bit helpless. He thought for a bit and said, "It can't be helped, I will call her."
"Her?!"
"Who is it?"
Everyone suddenly focussed on him when they heard that he would call a girl.
"My childhood friend, she was very good at piano, she might have helped us," Haru said. It was very rare for him to communicate with his childhood friend and she was very busy since she wanted to prepare to enter high school. He took his smartphone and called her right away. He didn't need to wait that long and heard a voice from his smartphone.
"Hello?" Her voice was quite unsure.
"Maki? It's me, Haru," Haru said, and felt that it had been a while for him to hear her voice.
"Haru?"
"Yeah, it has been a while," Haru said.
"Yes, I have heard that you have entered a hospital before, are you alright?"
"Yeah, there is nothing to worry about," Haru said.
"..Is there anything?"
"Can you help me with something?" Haru asked.
"Sure, what is it?"
"Can you help me to play the keyboard?" Haru said.
"......"
"Maki? Hello?" Haru said.
"Yes, I will help you."
"Is it alright? You have an exam, right?" Haru said.
"It's alright, you don't need to worry since I won't fail to enter that school."
"Well, then, I don't have to worry," Haru said and added, "Then come to my cafe, you've never been here before, right?"
"I - I'm a bit busy before, but I will come tomorrow."
"Good, I will be waiting for you," Haru said.
Both of them talked for a while but it was mostly him who was talking and asking her a question about her condition and a lot of things.
Haru closed his smartphone and sighed in relief. He looked at them and gave them a thumbs-up, "She will help us."
"......"
"What?" Haru asked.
"You've never said that you have a childhood friend," Yuri said.
"Really? Well, I might have forgotten about it but we're not that close after we entered middle school," Haru said. He was quite wild before when he was still in school and he remembered that Maki had started to change somehow after seeing him dating someone. He started to explain their relationship to them and continued to practice.
Maki was in her room. She kicked her bed in happiness when he started to call her. She had seen him dating someone before and it made her very uncomfortable. She had never communicated with him again at that time and when both of his parents died in the accident it made it very hard for her to say something to him. She wasn't that close to Sora and only played because he was there.
"Maki, it's time for dinner!"
Maki didn't hear the voice and still moved around her bed.
"Maki, it is time for dinner," her mom entered her room and saw her moving around in her bed, "What are you doing?"
Maki stopped and blinked her eyes, "Nothing." She stood up and nodded, "Dinner, I will go there."
"Is there something that makes you happy?" Her mom asked.
"Nothing," Maki shook her head.
"Have you come to his bakery? His bread is very good, it is very popular but the number is just too limited....." Her mother started to talk about a lot of things.
Maki only listened and couldn't wait to see him tomorrow.
